Who would have thought 35 years ago when picking out a cute top to wear out on a Saturday night, that we would be spending our Saturday night together getting excited about making a diaper cake for her daughter’s baby shower. One old friend introduced another old friend to the recipe for a diaper cake. Ingredients called for ribbons, baby items a little tulle, and a lot of diapers. When I was planning my daughter’s shower I breezed through the internet looking for shower ideas and found this gem.

Diaper cakes are a great functional centerpiece!

I made it myself according to the directions, not hard, just time consuming. Making it with a helper was much more fun. We first took apart smaller diaper centerpieces made for girls and turned the pink accents into blue. That was an easy fix. The finished product, the diaper cake, which was decorated with “Where the Wild Things Are” accents made for an excited Grandma-to-be. I don’t think I’ve seen her so excited since we found giant ice cream cones from Dairy Queen for only 50 cents back in college. Her “Wild Things” ideas should make for quite a cute shower. As the animals in the story said to Max, “We’ll eat you up we love you so” This baby will have all that animal love and more.
